In an economic capital like Mumbai, the entire lifeline rests on the train. About 12,000 trains run here every day.
However, on March 29, a few days after the lockdown was imposed, the Indian Railways had announced to run special trains to ferry people stranded in cities to their homes. Due to which the labourers and workers stranded in other states were transported to their states. Along with this, the government had also launched a scheme of free ration for the poor, so that the economically backward people living in the house do not have to face a food crisis.
